does ayurveda lehyam for weight gain actually work? struggling to gain weight despite eating well - #1732

Anonymously

I’ve always been underweight, no matter how much I try to eat or focus on protein-rich foods. I feel weak and get tired easily, and my recent blood tests came back normal, so there’s no underlying health issue. A friend suggested trying Ayurvedic lehyams for weight gain, like Ashwagandha Lehyam or Chyawanprash. She said they help with building strength and increasing appetite naturally. I’m curious if these Ayurvedic formulations actually work for weight gain. How long would it take to see noticeable results? Should I be taking it before or after meals? Also, are there any side effects, like digestive issues or excessive heat in the body? I’d appreciate any tips or personal experiences with using lehyam for weight gain.

In Ayurveda, underweight conditions are often linked to an imbalance in the **Vata** dosha, which can lead to poor appetite, low energy, and difficulty gaining weight. **Ashwagandha Lehyam** and **Chyawanprash** are both excellent formulations for building strength, boosting appetite, and supporting overall vitality. **Ashwagandha** helps balance Vata and promotes muscle mass, while **Chyawanprash** is a potent rejuvenating tonic that improves digestion, enhances nutrient absorption, and strengthens the body. These lehyams are typically taken **before meals** to stimulate digestion and improve appetite, but the exact timing can vary depending on the individual’s needs. Generally, it may take **a few weeks to a couple of months** of consistent use to see noticeable results in terms of weight gain and energy levels. While these formulations are generally safe, they can sometimes cause mild digestive discomfort or a feeling of excess heat in the body due to their potent, warming nature. If you experience such effects, you may want to reduce the dosage or take them with a small amount of milk or ghee to balance the heat. It’s best to use these remedies under the guidance of an Ayurvedic practitioner, who can tailor the treatment based on your unique constitution and needs. Additionally, a well-balanced diet, regular exercise, and adequate sleep will complement the benefits of the lehyams.
